My advice would be to take the time you need. Even KNOWING everything you can about every disorder out there, it's different LIVING with a child with it. I have a child with RAD. I know how hard it is. We have over 20 years of parenting experience as well as being fp's to 20 children. This little one still tests me beyond what I've ever experienced. Nothing in the world could have prepared me for the behaviors I've endured.
Be good to yourselves. Use this experience for what it is, a life lesson. You are changed by being her mom, even for a short time. Use that change for the better and things will work out in the end. I'm sorry you have had to make such a heart wrenching decision. My prayers are with your family.
